Some cash revenue is going to be obtained by Huron County this year from tree -planting enterprises undertaken Six y'eere ago in the 1,200 -acre county forest, Huron County Council learned, when Stewart Hamilton, Stratford dis- trict forester, made his November report to council, When planting work was done on land 'bought for the establish- ment of a county forest, Mr. Ham- ilton amilton reoalled, a proportion of Scotch pine was included in some of the plantings. This year be- tween 1,400 and 1,500 of the Scotch Dines have been harvested as Christmas trees, and it is hoped that they can be marketed at an average of about $1.00 each, he reported. Next year, he said, it is expected that about 1,500 more can be harvested, and the year af- ter that, about 2,000. The Christmas tree cutting is im- proving the tree atands, by thin- ning, he explained. The red pines, white pines and- spruces in the mixed plantations are being left to grow, while the Scotch pines are gradually removed. Most of the Scotch pines cut this year, he said, Wonderful TOYS 41� to Delight EVERY Rare ) ! o� 'Youngster! � • 'moi!

It is now a pol- icy of the Ontario Department of Lands and Forests, said Mr Ham- ilton, not to allow the planting of Scotch pines in municipal refor- estation lands. The new policy does not affect - Huron, which three years ago stopped buying land for county forest, and began, instead, to encourage tree -planting on priv- •atelywwned lands. The quota for 1955 tree -planting under the Huron County scheme of assistance to private tree -plant- ers, has been tilled, Mr. Hamilton, reported, and applications are now being received for 1956 spring planting. The 1955 list, now com- nleted, calla fear county aid to 16 landowners, to plant a total of 145 acres with 190,800 tree* The ,private landowners, who re- ceive financial aid from the county to*ar+d tree -planting costs, are not allowed, under the assistance scheme, to put in solid plantations of Scotch pine, but may include some Scotch pine in mixed plant- ings. lantings. A two-year campaign to control leafy spurge on a 200 -acre infested tract in East Wawanosh Town- ship, ownship, seems to be getting results, said W. R. Dougall, Hensall, coun- ty weed inspector, when he appear- ed before County 'Council to- make his November report. The spray4ng done on the tract in 1953 and 1954 appears to have given a good per- centage of kill on the leafy spurge, and a complete kill of thistle, wild INTERMEDIATE HOCKEY ST.

So far, said Reeve Nediger, $190,000 has been spent on 'the project, whish calls not only for four spans to -cross the wide valley, of the Maitland River, but for the re-routing of the east -west county road through Au- burn. It is now hoped, said Reeve Nodi - ger in his report to council, that the project can be completed for a total of not more than $215,000. The October floods which bit the part -finished structure, did dam- age amage which added an estimated $11,500 to the oast of the bridge building job, said Reeve Nediger. Insurance had been taken out to cover such a possibility, said Peter D. Patterson, county engin eer, but the Ontario government, which pays 80 per cent of the cost of the new bridge, also collects 80 per cent of the flood insurance set- tlement. To give an idea of the size of the project, Reeve Nediger noted that the completed structure will be 387 feet in length, with two cen- tre spans each of 102 feet, and two end spans each of 76 feet. The building job is using up la railway carloads of cement, 230 tone of carrot and ragweed. • Good co-operation has been re- ceived this year, in the roadside weed control work, from the coun- ty council, county engineer, town- ship councils and R.C.A.F. stations at Clinton and Centralia, Mr. Dou- gall reported. •Co-operation from the railways has not been good, he said, although he reported the C. P. R. better at weed -control work than the C.N.H. Reporting that Howick Township had been spraying roadside weeds on township roads for three con- secutive years, Reeve Harold Gow- dy, of Howick, asked Mr. Dougall whether he considered that after a three-year program, the job could be considered done, and the spray- ing, not done next year. Three years of spraying, said Mr. Dougall, would probably take care of chicory and some other weeds, 'but,if wild carrot were pre- sent, it would probably be neces- sary to keep on spraying annually.

Expenditures so far this year on county roads in Huron, Reeve? Nediger reported, to council, have totalled $55.6,131.96. Of this about half, $257,865, has been spent ole maintenance. New machinery has been bought at a cost of $28,927 - Major road improvement work haat been done on the road from Bay- field to Clinton, at a cost of $23„- 552, and on County Road No, 6 in Usborne Township, at a cost of $11,960. The problem of "Through" high ways in the county road system, has been studied by the county' roads committee, Reeve Nediger reported. The by-law will designate - through county, and provi4, an or- ganized plan for the "'slicing of "Stop" signs at county road inter- sections. -Council also was asked to pass a by-law assuming the Fordwich dt version as a county road, and re- turning parts of Patrick St. and Louisa St., in the police village of Fordwich, to the Howick Township road system. Reeve Eldon McKinley, Wing - ham, asked Tuesday in county council session, why the new Au- burn bridge was being built where it musttbe approached by a curve. 'Ilhere were three possible sites; for the bridge, explained County Engineer Patterson. It could have have been built beside the old Iron- bridge which it is replacing, just south of Auburn; it could have been built in line with the main. east -west street of Auburn; the third possible site, to the north` of the village, was chosen because as study of the stream channels, and' of air photographs of the valley, showed that the bridge could be built at less cost, and alio a & better angle to peak flood flews la- the river, at the site to the north of the village. The air photographs made It clear, said Mr. Patterson, that the Maitland, as it goes past Auburn, has three channels. The river gybed is being reshaped, the said, to com- bine oobine the three in one at the bridge- The ridesThe curve approaching the new bridge, said, Mr. Patterson, will bra gradual enough to take 60-milesee hour traffic.

It not only takes unnecessary weigh* off your mind; tests proved the* it also exhibits less "deal depth" when objects are drop- ped on it — with no one melee heath, we should add. Sounds like a sensible cha- peau for construction worketlt too. Certainly lots of aluminum articles developed for one use have been quickly adopted for others ... a process which hu helped build heavy demand for Canadian aluminum both at home and in foreign markets.
